The BEP DPST Chrome Plated Toggle Switch – OFF/ON is a double-pole, single-throw marine electrical control designed for simultaneous operation of two independent circuits from a single switch. Built by BEP Marine (part number 1002017), this chrome-plated toggle switch delivers reliable switching for dual-circuit applications at 12V DC, making it a standard choice across recreational and commercial vessels where coordinated lighting control is essential.
Key specifications reflect its marine-grade design: rated for 25 amperes at 12V DC with four #6-32 screw terminals that accept standard tinned marine wire. The mounting stem measures 15/32 inches in diameter and accommodates panels up to 1/4 inch thick, allowing integration into most helm console configurations without modification. The DPST configuration ensures both circuits activate or deactivate simultaneously—a critical safety feature for anchor light and running light systems that must operate in concert. This switch is functionally equivalent to the Cole Hersee 5588, a widely recognized marine industry standard.
Anglers and boaters managing dual lighting circuits—whether coordinating navigation lights during extended offshore trips or controlling accent and safety lighting on larger vessels—will find this switch's straightforward on/off operation and corrosion-resistant chrome finish suited to saltwater and freshwater environments alike. Weekend fishermen installing new console layouts and serious mariners performing electrical system maintenance or upgrades benefit from its universal compatibility and proven reliability as a replacement component.
The chrome plating resists oxidation in marine environments, and the solid toggle mechanism delivers tactile feedback during switching operations. Its screw-terminal design simplifies both installation and field troubleshooting, avoiding proprietary connectors that complicate repairs at remote anchorages. For vessel owners seeking a direct replacement or new dual-circuit control point, this BEP switch combines proven electrical performance with the durability expectations of professional-grade marine hardware.
